The stock market to-day was again extremely
dull and for the most part weak. There was
considerable feverishnesS and the trading
was subjected 10 spasmodic periods of activ-
ity AMI stagnaton. The bears used the tight
money scare and considerable selling was in

able bank statement during the forenoon,
but upon the appearance of the statement it
proved to have been entirely discounted and
created no effect whatever upon prices. The
weakness III Richmond s. West Point was
again the chief disturbing lement and that
stock was the only special feature of the day.
There were many stories atioat in regard to
the Baltimore & Ohio, but nothing new in re-
gard to the relations between the roads was
involved. but heavy selling prevailed during
the forenoon and the stock lost something
over per cent, the greater part OF which
was regained during the afternoon There
was considerable support given to stocks in
the early trading, but when this was with
drawn a decided weakness resulted, and later
in the day the indisposition to trade became
much more marked and general but slow
upward movement which lasted till the close.

the transactions of the day possessed no
special signification. In the I'M
listed department raid was made
upon Phoenix mining stock and one
OF Commack's brokers sold 10000 shares from
81 to 3$4. Reports of split among the in
siders ended the decline, and the stock having
opened at 6, touched and closed at 4. First
prices showed irregular changes from last
evenings fiua figures, which. however. were
for small fractions only either way. Business
was quick, but, after 4 few slight advances
in some stocks, the entire list weakened, and
Richmond & West Point, upon large trans
actions, dropped "a per cent. A general
rally followed. and prices were brought up
nearly to opening figures. Extreme dulness
then became the leading feature, but toward
noon weakness again became apparent.
The most important advance of the
day occurred before p. m, but the market
again fell, although prices in the last hour
showed some firmness. The close was dull
and steady. Railroad bonds were duh; sales

changes, generally for small fractions only.
Government bonds and state bonds were dull

and damage that came to both south and
north.
No man knew better than Mr.. Davis the
condition OF the armies Of the north and
those Of the south and the sentiment OF
the principal European nations during the
war, when terms Of peace were offered,
which, II accepted, would have saved
hundreds Of thousands of lives and hun
dreds Of millions of dollars worth Of prop
erty. Yet he preferred a hopeless contest
that he was bound to know could only end
In universal ruin to his people, except
through the intervention OF miracle.
The north suffered by the actions and oh.
stinacy Of this man, though not so severely
as the south, and 1t declined to punish him
or any man In the south. And the
north would let him rest In peace, notwith-
standing so many homes made desolate by
his action, as an old man whose life has
been failure, so far as good Is concerned,
but his foolish friends will not permit 1t.
Mr.. Davis himself, after the life he has
led, might with manifest propriety court
silence and obscurity rather than the glare
Of public life. He is too able man not to
know precisely where the civilized world
ranks him, but he seems to emulate the
folly Of his friends in posing as II for an
admiring world to gaze on. And then he
and they become frantic with rage II any
object to the false light in which they
place the picture.
The charity Of silence is all that he or his
friends should ask or expect. To obtain
that they should set the example.

Brutality.

From an editorial In the Richmond Dis.
patch Of Saturday on the poverty OF Vr
ginia, which contains an attack on the PEN
sion system, We take the following letter,
which the paper says is appropriate to the
subject OF its article, and was written by
one of the city fathers:
To THE EDITOR OF THE DISPATCH: Your
'eader this morning sounds really the m),t
cheering notes of promise to Virginia, over
ridden aud disgraced as she is by the power OF
federal judges. The critical illness of Mr.. JUS
tice Woods Is certainly not an event that
Christians should rejoice In, but then his death
and that of one or two others In advanced
years now on the bench are events that must
come shortly. 1t will then be equally ineYita
Bile presto change. and Virginia will be on top
View things, rather the people, as they are.
Mr.. Editor, and you will find that the Rid1le-
berger bill Is their ultimatum. You may not
discover this in the urban atmosphere but }
ten miles into the country by any road you
choose and inhale the breezes from hill or
dale. If not content with one days exploit go
further, and go anywhere and bring back Il
true index of the disgust that all the people
are beginning TO conceive for the whole sub
ject.
1t is mouse to try to conceal widespread and
pinching poverty. A tax collector went to a
house to levy on pig or COW the other day
in county not a hundred miles from this city.
He found the family living on parched corn
too poor to have it ground to meal. MY,
MAY 10, 1887.
Brutality is the only word that can pos
sibly describe the sentiment of this "city
father" of Richmond, as expressed in his
letter
